Hate hoaxes are not just for persons of politically preferred pigmentation. People of privileged perversion can engage in them too.
From Aguas Claras, Brazil:
On March 21, [49-year-old Gisela da Silva] Fernandes attended a local police station to report that he had been the victim of discrimination at the Metropoles Shopping Center earlier that week. According to Fernandes, he had gone into Sodalita, an upscale women’s boutique, but was soon after violently expelled by a security guard while being called homophobic slurs.
Fernandes had visible injuries to his arm which, at the time, appeared to corroborate his story of being grabbed and forcibly removed from the store.
However, a 18-year-old salesgirl tells a different story. She played along with the sick farce of pretending he is a woman until his lewd behavior forced her to flee to a store next door, where a security guard offered to escort Fernandes off the premises.
Police settled the matter by reviewing video:
Police determined that [the salesgirl] had served Fernandes “politely and promptly,” and that Fernandes had in fact opened the changing room’s privacy curtain after stripping to display himself in lingerie.
The lingerie exposed his decidedly nonfemale genitalia.
The videos also showed the security guard coming to the store after [the salesgirl] sought help, and respectfully accompanying Fernandes to the exit. At no point did the guard harm Fernandes, nor did he use any derogatory language, in stark contrast with his claims of having been verbally abused and physically manhandled.
Evidently his injuries were self-inflicted — unsurprising behavior from a guy crazy enough to say he is a woman.
Good thing they had video. The salesgirl and security guard could have been subject to legal action for committing “transphobia.” In Brazil this is a penal offense, being regarded as a form of “social racism.”
Please welcome Gisela da Silva Fernandes to the Hate Hoax List.
